Who IS NZ's Prime Minister John Key REALLY ??

This episode of current affairs show Close Up offers a fascinating portrait of 80s job du jour: foreign exchange dealer. The intrepid reporter heads into "the pit" (trading room) and chronicles the working life of a senior 'forex' dealer, 25-year-old squash-playing accountancy graduate, John Key. The "smiling assassin" (and future Prime Minister) is a now-familiar calm and earnest presence amongst the young cowboys playing for fortunes and Porsches in the heady pre-sharemarket crash world: "they're like addicts who eat, breathe and sleep foreign exchange dealing" - TVNZ On Screen

Basically, John Key is killing whales and dolphins, and potentially ruining the seafood (crabs, crayfish etc) industry in the area's which this seismic survey technology is used. The Media has not told you ANY of this...

The main environmental concern for marine surveys is the potential of seismic sources to disturb animal life, especially cetaceans such as whales, porpoises, and dolphins. Surveys involves towing an array of 15-45 pneumatic air guns below the ocean surface behind the survey vessel and emit sound pulses of a "predominantly low frequency (10--300 Hz), high intensity (215-250 dB).

Seismic surveying can damage the reproductive processes, auditory functions and other damaging effects to highly lucrative marine species (lobster, crab) and it poses potentially fatal effects to marine mammals. Seismic testing is not fully responsible for whales running ashore or becoming stranded, but there is evidence that it plays a major role. Studies of seismic effects on several whale species such as Gray, Bowhead, Blue, Humpback and Sperm whales indicated substantial effects in behavior, breathing, feeding and diving patterns.

On November 28, 2004, Reuters reported that during a three day span, 169 whales and dolphins beached themselves in Tasmania, an island off the southern coast of mainland Australia. The cause for these beachings is not known, but Bob Brown, a senator in the Australian parliament, said "sound bombing" or seismic tests of ocean floors to test for oil and gas had been recently carried out near the sites of the Tasmanian beachings.

According to Jim Cummings of the Acoustic Ecology Institute, seismic surveys utilising airguns have been taking place in mineral-rich areas of the world's oceans since 1968. Among the areas that have experienced the most intense survey activity are the North Sea, the Beaufort Sea (off Alaska's North Slope), and the Gulf of Mexico; areas around Australia and South America are also current hotspots of activity. The impulses created by the release of air from arrays of up to 24 airguns create low frequency sound waves powerful enough to penetrate up to 40km below the seafloor. The "source level" of these sound waves is generally over 200dB (and often 230dB or more), roughly comparable to a sound of at least 140-170dB in air.

According to the Australian Conservation Foundation, these 200dB -- 230dB shots from the airguns are fired every 10 seconds or so, from 10 metres below the surface, 24 hours a day, for 2 week periods of time, weather permitting. These types of tests are known to affect whales and dolphins, whose acute hearing and use of sonar is very sensitive.

On December 24 2004, there was a magnitude 8.1 earthquake more than 800 kilometres south east of Tasmania near New Zealand, with a subsequent aftershock 6.1 a little later in the morning that same day.

Then on December 26 2004, the magnitude 9.0 earthquake struck leading to the devastating tsunami that killed more than 300,000 people.

On December 27 2004, 20 whales beached themselves 180 kilometres west of Hobart on the southern island state of Tasmania.

As part of Budget 2009 a total of $20 million over three years will be allocated to the seismic data acquisition programme run by Crown Minerals, which is responsible for the administration and promotion of New Zealand's oil and gas.

the SMILING ASSASSIN PART 3 - john key - RIVERS, LAKES, POLLUTION

1080 importer threatens to sue government for compensation if 1080 stocks are made worthless.

New Zealand uses about 90% of the worlds supply of 1080. Banned in the U.S. due to "the extreme hazard to human health and to the environment". New Zealand aerially drops over 4000kg of pure 1080 annually, enough to kill 20 million people. 1080 poison kills an unacceptable number of non-target species, including dogs, cats, deer, birds (including natives), bees and insects.

Here are three surprising facts for your consideration:

1. ACP Ltd sees any developments of alternatives to 1080 (that ERMA recommended) as a "risk" to its core business. (Importing and manufacturing products from 1080 accounts for 65% of its profits)

2. It has stockpiled 4 years worth of 1080 "beyond commercial requirements". (This has been estimated to amount to more than 10,000kg of pure 1080)

3. It has stated that should the government take any action to restrict 1080 use, thereby making these stocks "valueless", it will assert its right to seek compensation "..sufficient to allow the Company's position to be restored. ( Source: http://www.comu.govt.nz/pdfs/ACP-SCI-... )

I really think it's great what this presentation is conveying but p-l-e-a-s-e....get rid of that ridiculous background music, absolutely inappropriate, and completely annoying and detracts away from the very important message you are trying to get across.
